Public asked to ID ransom-note writer in Nancy Guthrie kidnapping case
The Pima County Sheriff's Department released two ransom notes from the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping, asking the public to help identify the writer based on distinctive linguistic patterns; DNA hair testing at Guthrie's home found no link to a suspect. The notes claimed Guthrie was safe but terrified and demanded Bitcoin, with a second note later saying she had died and was buried in nature. Savannah Guthrie publicly urged the return of her mother and paid ransom, while investigators emphasize linguistic clues to identify the writer.
